    Remember some impressive points: 1. In the scene where the male protagonist impresses the female pickpocket to get clues, the man in the vest outside the snack bar kept blowing the waves of the Danube with his harmonica; 2. The old criminal policeman appeared and invited the female gun dealer to eat ice. After eating, break the ice cream stick into pieces; 3. The old detective looked at the child in his sleep and said with a smile that it was like a pumpkin field. Excellent metaphor. 4. After...

    With a keen sense of Japanese postwar appearance and social structure, "Wild Dog" is not a companion to "Drunken Angel", but a remake of that "failure". The main difference is the adjustment of the relationship between the characters: from opposition to unity. However, this positive correction did not get a significant effect in the framework of this type of film, but made the rhythm of the film messy and impetuous. Perhaps due to the limitations of the studio-centric system (community), most...

    As far as Kurosawa Akira's early films have been seen, it is basically impossible to escape the theme of society and people. This one is more straightforward. The process of finding guns brings out the appearance of post-war Japanese society and the influence of society on young people's thoughts. The young Toshiro Mifune and Kimura Gong, who played the criminal, are not only veterans who have experienced robbery and lost everything (luggage loss is only an appearance, which refers to the...

    The process of finding guns and solving cases is also a panoramic tour of Japanese society. On such a hot summer day, sweat seems to be dripping from the screen, but the fire in the heart is more unbearable than the scorching sun. Akira Kurosawa intentionally extended some montage paragraphs to stimulate the audience's inner anxiety with the ultimate audio-visual. The young Mifune plays an impatient but persevering police detective. The emperor intends to set him up as an idol in business (the...

    Mifune's acting is really good. I still don’t like the symbolic and didactic passages in Akira Kurosawa’s social realism, and I am especially disgusted when I read it, such as the various forms of the lower-level beings depicted in this film for a few days after hunting for a gun, and the dancer wearing a white dress after confessing. The picture of the skirt spinning wildly. Speaking of "Desire to Live" and "Wild Dog", I selfishly want to watch the emperor filming the ball, a short and...

    The film accurately depicts a picture of the Japanese people after the war, but it is not enough Drama, and the dramatic tension is not enough. It is really boring. In terms of film language, the many very bold flashbacks at the beginning of this film are commendable. The following year, Akira Kurosawa shocked the Western European film industry with "Rashomon". The "flashback technique" tends to be perfected in "Rashomon", and has already taken shape in this...

    The appearance of young people and old people is really very different. Toshiro Mifune and Tatsuya Nakadai are examples. Sanchuan has tight muscles in his face and mouth to see what he looked like later. This is his characteristic, which comes from style rather than innate looks. Mifune was very handsome when he was young, a bit like Tony...

    This is a Japanese theme movie. Criminal investigation, crime, and at the same time do not forget to analyze the social background of the crime, and give the perpetrators a certain degree of sympathy. During the criminal investigation process, we visit the lowest level of society and expose the dire life of the people at the bottom. After the war, Japan was like that hot weather. I don't know when it will become refreshing and transparent, but the director still pin his hopes on good people and...

    The second point is to find a gun, and the bottom line and the mentality of the Japanese after World War II are the focus. The rotten tomato, the blood dripping on the white flowers, the blue sky the next day after the sultry summer rainstorm, how much Kurosawa wanted to make this film in color! The Chinese-born Michuan was a deserter in World War II and almost committed suicide, and the sadness that looked at the dancer was too direct. No matter how broken the world, the corrupt society, and...

    After watching wild dogs

    I like Akira Kurosawa's movies. Whether it is the desire to live or the wild dog, they can always express the fragility and desire in human nature profoundly. I read the script for this wild dog first and then watched the movie. The movie is very reductive, especially with the soundtrack, which not...

    Stray Dog

    In the past, Cai Lan's column always mentioned the actor Toshiro Mifune. Today, I finally have the opportunity to see his famous work "Stry Dog". Although the film is a work from 1949, the film elements such as shooting skills, scene scheduling, work skills, etc. are not outdated at all. An...
